Nesting Pairs Programme 2018


By Ross P - Posted on 25 November 2017

NESTING PAIRS PROGRAMME
Hi All
Last year some of us attended some Bridge training with Jane Stearns, called the Nesting Pairs programme. Jane is running the programme again in 2018 in a slightly different format – see below:-
“Run in Cambridge and across the Waikato since 2012 it has enthused and progressed many intermediate players. Its primary aim is to encourage forming of partnerships and increase enjoyment of the game by exciting the students into learning some new techniques. It is aimed primarily at intermediates but it is also of interest to the newer / less experienced open player and to keen juniors who have a strong grasp of the basics. It is not suitable for novice players.”

Here is a link to a Youtube video by Jane on the subject:

Players are invited to join Jane on an exciting journey to raise their game in 2018. All of the training and materials are provided electronically free of charge.

Below is info detailing the online seminar dates and times. Students can of course get together to study outside those times and all the materials they will need will be on the Cambridge Bridge Club website free for them to access from 1 March 2018. The course will be held "live" at the Cambridge Bridge Club on the dates in the attached poster. Students that would like to travel to the Cambridge Bridge Club to take part will be most welcome.
